Reconnecting on holiday

[April601stbaby]

DH and I are going away on a hiking holiday in the summer.
When we are not out and are back at our accommodation what can we do to keep busy, enjoy each other and not get bored?
Serious question.
We have not been away for a while and although we are happy in our marriage I feel it is a little stale.
We are not very romantic and I need some ideas. Tia

I think if you are together walking all day, there is nothing wrong with having your own space in the evenings. We tend to read or bugger about on our phones etc. I like to have a book about the local area to research the night before to see if you can incorporate something into the next day. Early night and good sleep are important too if you are walking any distance. A glass if wine or two can help conversation too.

Netflix & chill 😉

Do you like board games/quiz type things? There are lots that are for couples and can be quite fun.

Are there any pubs nearby that have live music? You could go there for an evening

Have a Google for some 'date night' ideas - some might be practical to do when you're away.

Do you like puzzles? Take one and see if you can complete it while you're away.

Will you be taking lots of photos while you're walking? Could you aim to review/edit them in the evenings and choose your favourites etc? Put together a photo book of them?

I think anything that will have you both trying to achieve an objective (win a game, complete a puzzle etc) gives you both something to work towards & a focus or doing something different you don't have time to at home can also help.

Enjoy your holiday

after hiking all day, bath or shower together, massage each other nice wine and food and lots of relaxing sex
